The Switch 2 Zelda 40th Anniversary console is now in the hands of some early buyers. This has led to a bit of a rush among late collectors hoping to get one before the first pre-order run. A European buyer was able to get one before the official release date.

Early unboxings reveal black, gold, and green design with $519.99 price tag

This is one of the first looks we've gotten at this in the wild. It makes it clear just how big the demand is and how scarce the supply will probably be on the October 29 release.

  • Colorway: Black, gold, and green
  • Battery: User-replaceable (per Smyths Toys listing)
  • Price: $519.99

The Zelda 40th Anniversary edition system from has a unique black, gold, and green design that differs from other models. The system itself is also priced at $519.99 which is a bit of a high price for dedicated gaming hardware. We've been following the Zelda 40th Anniversary Switch 2 Console. This early sale just means the stakes are even higher for fans who are still hoping to get their hands on one.

Walmart's retail pictures reveal the box of this console waiting to be purchased. It looks like there might not be that many of them available. GameStop executives have been saying there's a chance they will only have zero to five at any given store when they launch. That sounds like most people will struggle to buy one on launch day.

As for whether or not it's easy to service, that's still a bit of a mystery. A Smyths Toys listing said it had a user-replaceable battery. Nintendo's own website had said this special edition system didn't come with that specific benefit.

So, that's a bit conflicting. This unboxed system didn't look like the one that was easier to service. So, it's a bit of a mystery there.

This console officially drops on October 29. That European pre-order is a taste of the distribution issues we might face. Already early buyers have offered up some unboxing info.

So, we know what it looks like and how much it costs. Be ready for very low availability. And, be prepared for a bit of a battle when you try to buy one on launch day.
